The Best $10 Ever Spent

It's spring break. Barely anyone is on campus. The majority (if not everyone) who are staying on campus during this 10-day break are staying for three reasons:
1) Work
2) Athletic competition
3) They are going on vacation with friends/family

With the FAU men's basketball team coming off of a huge first-round conference tournament victory over FIU, the momentum going into spring break for the team was huge. But, because of the break, that momentum and spirit around campus would soon die out.

But for 15 students on Sunday night, the spirit didn't die out. We huddled in the Indian River Tower Resident Hall Multi-Purpose Room, where the air conditioning wasn't working, and watched the FAU men's basketball team lose to Western Kentucky.

I purchased the game for $10 from sunbeltsports.org. We watched our boys compete live. It was amazing. We found a resident that had a projector and hooked it up to a laptop and had an instant game-watch party.

Although we lost, those 15 students kept the momentum from last game going strong.

THIS IS WHAT CAMPUS LIFE IS LIKE. This is what campus life should be like.
